2. ヨアシュは主の目にかなう正しいことを行った——彼の外側の行いと政府の方針に関する限りにおいて。しかし彼の歴史の後半から明らかなように、彼の施政の正しさは、彼自身の心の誠実で純真な指図というよりは、彼の救い主であり師であるエホヤダの有益な影響によるものが多かった。
Original em inglês
2. Jehoash did that which was right in the sight of the Lord--so far as related to his outward actions and the policy of his government. But it is evident from the sequel of his history that the rectitude of his administration was owing more to the salutary influence of his preserver and tutor, Jehoiada, than to the honest and sincere dictates of his own mind.

3. ただし高き所は除かれなかった——木立や丘の奥まった所で行われる私的で乱雑な儀式に対する民衆の愛好はあまりにも根強く、最も強力な君主たちでさえその抑制を成し遂げることができなかった。若い王の治世の初期において、かつアタリヤの乱政の間に許されたひどい紊乱の後にあっては、「高き所」と結びついた迷信を終わらせる難しさが大いに増したのは当然であった。
Original em inglês
3. But the high places were not taken away--The popular fondness for the private and disorderly rites performed in the groves and recesses of hills was so inveterate that even the most powerful monarchs had been unable to accomplish their suppression; no wonder that in the early reign of a young king, and after the gross irregularities that had been allowed during the maladministration of Athaliah, the difficulty of putting an end to the superstitions associated with "the high places" was greatly increased.

4. ヨアシュは祭司たちに言った、等——ここには、若い王が税の徴収によって宮を修繕するためにとった措置が記されている：1. 「数に上るすべての者の銀」、すなわち半シェケル、「主への奉納物」として
(出 30:13)。 2. 「各人が評価される銀」、すなわち自分自身、または自分に属するものを主に献身した各人の贖いの価であり、その額は一定の規則にしたがって評価された
(レビ 27:1-8)。 3. 聖所にささげられた自発的な、あるいは随意の奉納物。最初の二つは毎年納められた（参照
代下 24:5)。
Original em inglês
4. Jehoash said to the priests, &c.--There is here given an account of the measures which the young king took for repairing the temple by the levying of taxes: 1. "The money of every one that passeth the account," namely, half a shekel, as "an offering to the Lord"
(Ex 30:13).
- "The money that every man is set at," that is, the redemption price of every one who had devoted himself or any thing belonging to him to the Lord, and the amount of which was estimated according to certain rules
(Le 27:1-8).
- Free will or voluntary offerings made to the sanctuary. The first two were paid annually (see
2Ch 24:5).

7-10. なぜ宮の破れを修復しないのか——この集め方は期待されたほど実り多いものではなかった（祭司たちの遅滞が失敗の主な原因であった）ため、新しい取り決めが提案された。大祭司によって宮殿の入り口に箱が置かれ、宮殿の修復のために民によって与えられた金は、門を守るレビ人によってそこに入れられることになった。この箱の目的は、建物のために集められる金と、祭司たちの一般的使用のために充てられるほかの資金とを区別することであった。そして献金が修復という特定の目的に充てられることが知られるなら、民はその献金においてより気前よくなるであろうという望みに基づくものであった。この仕事に注意を払う義務はもはや祭司たちに委ねられるのではなく、王が引き受けることになった。

7-10. Why repair ye not the breaches of the house?--This mode of collection not proving so productive as was expected (the dilatoriness of the priests was the chief cause of the failure), a new arrangement was proposed. A chest was placed by the high priest at the entrance into the temple, into which the money given by the people for the repairs of the temple was to be put by the Levites who kept the door. The object of this chest was to make a separation between the money to be raised for the building from the other moneys destined for the general use of the priests, in the hope that the people would be more liberal in their contributions when it was known that their offerings would be devoted to the special purpose of making the necessary repairs. The duty of attending to this work was no longer to devolve on the priests, but to be undertaken by the king.

11、12. 彼らは数えた金を、工事をする者たちの手に渡した——王は大祭司の代理人とともに書記を送り、時々箱の中の金を数え
(代下 24:11)、 その額を建築の監督者に渡した。監督者は労働者に支払い、必要なすべての資材を購入した。一定額の金を袋に入れ、適切な役人によって札をつけ封印する習慣は、トルコやその他の東洋の国々における通貨の一般的な使用法である。

11, 12. they gave the money, being told, into the hands of them that did the work--The king sent his secretary along with an agent of the high priest to count the money in the chest from time to time
(2Ch 24:11),
and deliver the amount to the overseers of the building, who paid the workmen and purchased all necessary materials. The custom of putting sums of certain amount in bags, which are labelled and sealed by a proper officer, is a common way of using the currency in Turkey and other Eastern countries.

13-16. しかし……鉢、等は作られなかった*——宮殿の修復が完了したとき、余剰は宮殿の調度品の購入に充てられた。工事の監督者たちの正直さは疑いがなかったので、彼らに与えられた金の使い方についての説明は求められなかった。一方、宮殿で徴収された他の資金は律法が命じたように祭司たちの処分に委ねられた
(Le 5:16； Nu 5:8)。
Original em inglês
13-16. Howbeit there were not made . . . bowls, &c.--When the repairs of the temple had been completed, the surplus was appropriated to the purchase of the temple furniture. The integrity of the overseers of the work being undoubted, no account was exacted of the way in which they applied the money given to them, while other moneys levied at the temple were left to the disposal of the priests as the law directed
(Le 5:16; Nu 5:8).
